feed icon on locationbar not working.
so cannot add feed to bookmark by click feed icon.

Reproducible: Always
I noticed if i click feed icon, then feed is automatically added to Places Toolbar.

is this intended behavior ?
if so, why ?
cannot i select where to add ?
Please remember that places is currently at a pre-alpha stage. In particular much of the UI is not in its final form yet.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
